Save the Output of Any Terminal Command with One Parameter

Save the Output of Any Terminal Command with One Parameter

Windows/Mac/Linux: The command line (or terminal) is an extremely useful tool, but if you have a command that returns a wall of text, you can save it to a single text file with this simple parameter.

By using a single parameter at the end of your normal commands, you can pipe the output directly into a basic text file. Just add "> FILENAME.txt" (no quotes) to the very end of your command. This will create a .txt file with everything you would have seen on the screen in an easy-to-copy form. So, if you wanted a list of all the files in your Movies directory, you would run the "dir" command with this parameter (for Windows users):

CD C:\Users\me\Movies
dir > mymovies.txtOpen up mymovies.txt, and you'll see a list of every file in that Movies folder.

If you want to put the file somewhere other than your working directory, you can spell out the location in it's entirety. For example:

dir > C:\Users\JimmyJoUserMan\Documents\heywhatsinhere.txtMany of you command line veterans are very familiar with this trick, but for those still learning their way around, it's a great shortcut to have on hand.

Enable Text Expansion in the Stock Google Keyboard

Enable Text Expansion in the Stock Google Keyboard

Android: There have already been some pretty great text expansion apps for Android. However, if you're using the stock Android keyboard, you don't need to look any farther than Settings.

Technically, the feature is hidden under "Personal dictionary." Here you can enter your own terms, as well as find the ones you've already added. When you edit/create a new word or phrase, though, you have the option to create a shortcut. Once you set up the shortcut, your expanded words will appear as autocorrect suggestions as you type the shortcut phrase.

Tip: The Google Keyboard For Android Supports Text Expansion, Here's How To Use It | Android Police

The New MacBook Air Comes Packing Intel's Awesome New Processor

Today's golden children may be iOS 7 and all things software, but that doesn't mean the actual machines running that software are being tossed to the wayside. Confirming recent rumors and stock shortages, we are officially seeing Apple's super skinny MacBook Air get a much deserved refresh.

Perhaps most exciting, all MacBook Airs will now come packing Intel's kickass new Haswell processors. And that means better battery life, which has become a major issue these days. So instead of 6 hours of HD video playback, for instance, you can get away with a full 9. With just regular use, though, your laptop should supposedly last up to 50 percent longer, although we'll soon see if Intel's claim actually holds up.

Matching its more power-hungry, Pro brother, the Air has also been updated with a dual built-in microphone design. And considering it's built for maximum portability, we're happy to see a Wi-Fi boost with 802.11ac along with new AirPort Extremes and Time Capsule updates to support the faster speeds.

Considering that MacBook Airs run almost entirely on Flash, the fact that the drive will be running up to 40% faster is huge. And the price ain't bad. The 11-inch model comes at $1000 for the 128 GB and $1200 for the 256 GB. The 13-inch will set you back up $1100 for the 128 GB version and $1300 for the 256 GB. They start shipping out today.

Gluten Free Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars

Ingredients:
1.5 cups peanut butter (full fat...don't use low-fat)
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup whole milk
1.5 cups certified gluten free rolled oats
3 TB ground flax
4 eggs
1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup Jam or Jelly (I use a berry mixture:  blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, blackberry....but grape jelly would work too)

Instructions:
1.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter.  

2.  In your stand mixer with the paddle attachment on low, mix everything (except for the jam) together until well combined.

3.  Using your hands, spread 2/3 of the batter into your greased baking dish. Spread the jam over this (again, easiest to use your fingers but you could also try a knife).  Crumble the remaining batter over the jam so it is evenly spread (see photos above).  Once all of your batter is crumbled on top of the jam, gently press down with the back of a spatula to flatten the crumbles slightly (to prevent tiny peaks from burning on top).

4.  Bake for about 38 minutes.  Cool completely before cutting into bars.

Notes:  These are so fun and really delicious!   They also pack very well for a picnic or plane ride.   Make sure you use a jam that has fruit listed as the first ingredient....not sugar!
